The power passenger seat probably comes with the Leather Pkg, or the XLE trim. The current hybrid system is solid, but I would expect a next-generation unit in the 2018 redesign. The next Prius should teach them some new tricks later this year.
The backend of the 2014 looked far better. Even if you drive like a moron it's hard to get one of these under 30MPG Combined. Tap something with that front bumper and I bet that is an expensive repair. As long as you don't need to haul long objects the trunk room is actually decent. Kudos on sticking with NiMH batteries. Doesn't have the temperature issues nearly as much and it keeps the cost down.
It's a nice refresh but the new Camry reminds to much of being a bigger corolla. I can't knock the Camry to much for being the best selling Midsize car because let's be honest it's cheap, reliable, somewhat good on gas (Depending on how hard you drive it) and last for years what more do you want in a car? All in all it's a great car but it's not for me. This is all coming from a Malibu owner. Also great review as always Steve
Surefire346 If you're talking about the EV1, it wasn't a hybrid but a pure electric vehicle. Honda was actually the first to bring a true hybrid to the States with the original Insight.
